gpSnippets: Breaking into Silverlight

News: New Survey

Tutorials and snippets for Silverlight game development are coming to Game Programming Snippets. Theres a survey to see if you are interested in learning some cool techniques and libraries for Silverlight.

Silverlight: Synopsis

Since silverlight is very new and not many people are familiar with it I'll explain shortly what it is. In short it is Microsofts answer to Flash's continued advancement. Here is microsofts pitch from their Silverlight page.

Microsoft Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform, and cross-device plug-in for delivering the next generation of .NET based media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web.

Upcoming Snippets

An introduction with many links to showcase and help you get started with Silverlight. Hopefully there will be a basic getting started silverlight tutorial posted here as well. Along with an already available physics package with links and code snippets to help you. Stay tuned.

Feedback: Please!!!

Please offer any comments on what types of tutorials or snippets you would like to see either for Silverlight, Java, or C/C++. I am tremendously interested in offering my knowledge and experience to help you make successful games.
